Customised Tube Sheet

A tube sheet is a flat plate that acts as a support and tube bundle holder in heat exchangers and boilers. The tube sheet is typically made of metal, such as carbon steel or stainless steel, and has holes or bores drilled into it to allow the insertion of tubes. The ends of the tubes are then expanded or welded to the tube sheet to create a secure and leak-proof joint.

Tube sheets can be designed in different shapes and sizes depending on the specific application and requirements. They are an essential component in the construction of shell-and-tube heat exchangers, which are widely used in various industries, such as power generation, chemical processing, and HVAC systems.

In addition to supporting the tubes, the tube sheet also serves as a barrier between the two fluid streams in the heat exchanger. This ensures that the fluids do not mix and allows for efficient heat transfer between them. Tube sheets must be carefully designed and manufactured to ensure proper alignment of the tubes and prevent leakage or tube failure.
